From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I don't edit here much these days. I had moved to Wikibooks to work on First Aid, which is now a featured book. I got the +sysop +CheckUser and +crat bits there. Got +sysop at Commons, OTRS access, then +sysop and +oversight Meta. Finally, I was elected as a steward. That means I get to help you in new and exciting ways! Since English Wikipedia is not a home wiki for me, the steward policy allows me to act here.

Now that First Aid is more-or-less done, I'm doing mostly maintenance work, policy discussion here, there and everywhere. I also have an account on every wiki to combat cross-wiki vandalism and cross-wiki spam.

I've also been approved to use AWB, but I only use it here for testing purposes. There have been several bugs which do not affect enwikipedia, but only other projects. Since I use AWB on enwikibooks and commons, it is often difficult to tell how extensive a bug is otherwise.

Admins are welcome to ask me to import something if an AFD is closed as "Transwiki to Wikibooks" but please please make sure you actually want it to be transwikied to Wikibooks. We are not a dumping ground for stuff you don't want. Just like Wikipedia has an inclusion policy, so too does Wikibooks.

If I removed your favourite link, I consider it to be spam. If you disagree, revert me. If you'd rather talk about it, please do so on Meta.
